SUNW news? You actually want some news, Ken? Well, here's something copied from the EMC thread:
[quote begin]
Section: 03. Financial News
Merrill Lynch & Co analysts expect EMC, Sun Microsystems, Lexmark International and possibly Network Appliances and Unisys to show better than expected earnings in the third quarter reporting season which begins this week. In Merrill's view, internet infrastructure and information appliance server stocks are good investments. "The infrastructure is converging while the devices diverge, so profits are moving above and below the PC." IBM, Hewlett-Packard and Xerox should meet expectations, but its feeling is that all three are "revenue challenged" and that they are going to find it difficult to keep growth levels high compared with competitors. The brokerage wonders how many vendors are going to be tempted to blame any guidance they give on potential under-performance on Y2K issues or the earthquake in Taiwan, and how many that do will be telling the truth. HP has already said that Taiwan will negatively impact its quarter.

Ken, if people, this time last year, had said SUNW would open above **75** on October 6, 1999 it would have been deemed fantasy wishing. Look where we are. Personally, I'm hoping we touch 100 today :)
